My team, FIRST Robotics Team 422: Mech Tech Dragons, reached unprecedented success by qualifying for the international FIRST World Championship in Houston, Texas for the third consecutive year! This season, we championed both technical excellence and success in STEM outreach. We not only won ALL of our events, including District Championships, but we also won the most prestigious award within FIRST, the Impact Award at the District Level, a feat that has not been achieved since 2014.
In addition to winning both district events and the championship, we also rank 15th in the world out of 4000 teams. Team 422 is the only team in the 35 year history of FIRST to achieve the maximum possible points and accolades during the season.
With the qualification for the world championship, we are quickly trying to meet the costs of participation. Our budget consists of registration, transportation, lodging and food for our group of 24 students, parent chaperones, and team mentors. The budget to compete at World’s is approximately $50,000, and while each attendee will pay a share of the cost, our goal is to make the trip as affordable as possible.
